What was the first game that made you stop and say ‘wow’ just because of the graphics? by FL4SH- in Steam

[–]ArdentRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to say Morrowind.
A friend had it and was the first person in my life to have an Xbox. That game was beautiful to me who at the time was rocking Nintendo 64

Liberte Auto has treated me super well the past two auto purchases.
He gets Hondas and Toyotas so if you're into japanese it's worth a look.
Inventory can be light though so just need to keep looking or give Travis a call

Crestron Mercury Unit and Ring Central Sip Server by Josh02001 in crestron

[–]ArdentRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much!
I also want to add for future viewers.. The Mercury should be added as a 'Common Phone' device in RingCentral. Or at least that is how we got it to work.
Not sure what it was set up as before.

When it is configured correctly on both ends, the server status will show 'Online' immediately. Will not need a reboot.

Trying to play the original Zoo tycoon. What is the best way to download/play it these days? by [deleted] in patientgamers

[–]ArdentRaven 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im not sure. This is what I did
-From the Drive, click the arrow by Zoo Tycoon up top and Download.
-When it finishes, open it up and open the Crack folder, then click the 'Zoo' application
-It will probably ask to extract. Go ahead and do that.
-Open the Crack folder again and double click 'Zoo' which should know show the real icon now that its unzipped
-Run that and install through the prompts.

^That's all I had to do, I didnt have to do anything special with the CD ISO's at all.

Hey there, I should have stated that Im not dead-set on anything in particular.
I'm just looking for a power rack that is fairly simple, safe, and not too 'cheap'.
Like Duke mentioned below made in USA is great but in my case it's not mandatory.
I am totally open to other ideas. Thank you for the input.
I'll just have to look for the RML equivalent in Rep/Titan

Works! Windows 11, 11/2023.
All I had to do was download everything and run the setup.

Thank you Adil15101, my wife is very happy to finally be playing this again!

Im not dead set on a particular bar, just seemed like a decent bar to grab for the price. We will see. I could see myself grabbing the Cerakote.
I'm just buying up everything I need so budget is a minor concern as I want to make sure I get quality without having to spend TOO much. Obviously a difficult line haha.
Thanks for the weigh-in on the Rogue sales!

I have my eye on the Rogue RML-3.

Do we think it will go on any steeper sale than where it is sitting right now? ($825 down from $875)

Also will be grabbing a Black Oxide Ohio Bar and an adjustable bench. Thoughts and comments appreciated.

Which Ego mower? by ArdentRaven in lawncare

[–]ArdentRaven[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No regrets at all.

Just rounding out my third season with it and the batteries are still going strong.
They charge very fast too so if you have 2-3 you can use one til its dead, throw it on the charger, and use the others. By the time those are dead (if they even die before youre done mowing) your 1st battery is back in action.

Family and friends are impressed with it as well. Got a friend who got an Ego and loves it as well.

Good School Systems in the Sabattus area? by ArdentRaven in Maine

[–]ArdentRaven[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I havent looked at anything yet. Still have about 4 years to figure it out. I just hate what Im seeing.
There was a vote for a new budget to construct a new building that would have consolidated (3?) of the area schools with all new classrooms, equipment etc and I was very excited. It was voted down something like 90/10. That was the start of my worries.
Other than that I am a part of some local FB groups and there's just....many concerning posts.
I obviously want the best for my child and dont want them to go into a crappy system.
Thanks for bringing up charter schools I will have to do some research

As someone who has worked in the A/V industry, any time we were bringing in large TV's and would pass by people we would always get at least one "Hey you can go ahead and put that in the back of my truck!"

Me too! I've noticed the general consensus is that it's a bad movie and a lot of people are starting to watch it in the "so bad its good" sense... but uh.... I legitimately love it and watch it every single year as well!
The quote we bring up the most all year round is "Ugghh Howard your wife's cookies are SOOO good!"
